Since 1996, Enkaustikos’ mission has been to mill the highest quality professional encaustic paint for artists. We do this by procuring the highest quality raw ingredients, seek out the widest range of the highest quality pigments suitable for the encaustic medium and mill on a state of the art milling machine. Excellence is what we are after; we are passionate about our product. We will always experiment with new and diverse pigments to expand our color line. We will also strive to meet the needs of artists by increasing our product line with encaustic related products that support the growth and current trends of the industry.

We are extremely proud and happy to share with you that Enkaustikos has received the prestigious International Encaustic Artists La Vendeenne Award for Innovation this Fall. This award recognizes Enkaustikos for producing outstanding quality encaustic materials that meet the needs of the artists all over the world. Most recently, our addition of Hot Sticks, Wax Snaps and the anodized aluminum plates have really had an impact on how artists work with encaustic paints.

We are also proud to let you know that Kathryn Bevier has been recognized for her role in education and sharing of knowledge to the international community. She is instrumental in the development of our educational videos, Heat Up Your Art! DVD, e-newsletters, manuals, and project sheets, and for this she has been awarded the La Vendeenne Award for Media.
